Recently my tagged sysfs support revealed a flaw in the device core
that a few rare drivers are running into such that we don't always put
network devices in a class subdirectory named net/.
Since we are not creating the class directory the network devices wind
up in a non-tagged directory, but the symlinks to the network devices
from /sys/class/net are in a tagged directory. All of which works
until we go to remove or rename the symlink. When we remove or rename
a symlink we look in the namespace of the target of the symlink.
Since the target of the symlink is in a non-tagged sysfs directory we
don't have a namespace to look in, and we fail to remove the symlink.
Detect this problem up front and simply don't create symlinks we won't
be able to remove later. This prevents symlink leakage and fails in
a much clearer and more understandable way.
